Now I prob look like a real egghead, just finished (sort of) "The Panic of 1907". I really wish I'd read it 2 yrs ago when it came out, but it took this long to get down to my price range; now it just seems depressingly predictive, in that it shows that we were primed for a repeat of history 100 yrs later, & yet we couldn't do anything to stop ourselves from doing the lemming thing again. Best quote: "History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes." - Mark Twain
